We link this murder to his statist pro-Ukrainian position and believe that our eternal enemy and terrorist &#8211; the Russian Federation and its 5th column &#8211; may be behind this cruel crime. Moscow sincerely hated Parubiy as one of the state builders of modern Ukraine,&#8221; Gerashchenko noted.<\/span><\/p>\n<p> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In turn, Viktoriya Siumar <a href=\"https:\/\/eurosolidarity.org\/2025\/08\/30\/viktoriya-syumar-symvol-majdanu\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">added<\/a> : Andriy Parubiy was a symbol of the Maidan and all those Ukrainian values that were always mocked by enemies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to her, Parubiy was \u201ca desperado who was the only one who dared to take serious steps\u201d to thwart the Kharkiv agreements.<\/span><\/p>\n<p> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cLast week, we talked for an hour about the future&#8230; and that this war finally established the nation&#8230; But the enemy cannot accept this.
